Can advanced mathematics demonstrate the mind’s inner workings? Yes, according to mathematician and author Robert Paster. The MIT and Harvard graduate has studied theories of quantum physics related to cognition for more than twenty years, and now he has applied that knowledge to Digital Mind Math, the innovative framework that mathematically models the way we think.
The idea originates in Finnish physicist Matti Pitkänen’s theory of Topological Geometrodynamics (TGD), which Paster focuses on in his 2006 book New Physics and the Mind.
What does this theory mean for modern science? Through anecdotes and easy-to-follow explanations, Paster highlights how it could lead to advancements in everything from psychology to artificial intelligence.
If you’re a fan of Brian Greene or Stephen Hawking, Digital Mind Math is your next must-read.
